Note di degustazione
(the yield was just one ton per acre, the lowest of any of these vintages along with 2008, with the vines picked at the beginning of September): Bright ruby to the rim. Aromas of black plum, minerals, iron and fresh blood; this wine calls for a rare steak. At once thick and sappy, boasting extraordinary density to its sweet dark fruit and iron flavors. The very long, slowly building finishes features outstanding sweetness and salinity and extremely suave tannins. This very powerful wine is developing at a snail's pace.

(the yield in 2004 was down 75% from a normal year; just bottled) Saturated black-ruby. Brooding, high-toned aromas of blueberry and blackberry. High-toned, sweet and extremely concentrated, with powerful brambly dark berries lifted by a peppery nuance. Superripe, hugely tannic wine that retains just enough freshness to maintain its balance.
The Petite Syrah reveals a black/purple color as well as notes of graphite, smoke, blackberries, blueberries, creme de cassis, a liqueur of mineral-like intensity, and huge tannin and concentration. The 2004 Petite Syrah Hayne Vineyard possesses the purest fruit, density, and intensity. This is a prodigious wine that should be purchased only by those with cold cellars and good DNA for longevity as it will all age for 40-50 years. (Release date 11/06) Tel.
